Event Details

Science, Neat: Interactive Science Happy Hour | El Rio

Dust off your pocket protector and grab a whiskey because science is taking over the El Rio bar.

Science, Neat is a monthly summer happy hour that pairs lightening talks with live demonstrations on the back patio of the El Rio bar in San Francisco, California.

Get in touch with your inner scientist while sipping your favorite drink and networking with other like-minded nerds.

Science, Neat July: Backyard Science

There’s a lot of science behind what makes the Bay Area an amazing place to live. Grab a drink and hit the patio of El Rio for an evening of what makes the Bay tick.

Talks:

  • Jonathan Young (SFSU, Presidio Trust): Mountain Lake restoration and ecology
  • Liam O’Brian & Amber Hasselbring (Nature in the City): Tigers on Market project

Interactive Stations:

  • Ann Holmes, Benson Chow, Peter Drell (SFSU, Romberg Tiburon Center): Inverts in the Bay
  • Mary Reagan, Nadja Drabon (Stanford): Geology rocks
  • Amy N Ellevold, Sami Fink, Kristina Lacayo (Presidio Trust): Botany, natives and non-natives
  • Rebecca Johnson Rodgers (iNaturalist/Cal Academy): Get involved with local biodiversity. Snap a pic of a plant or animal with your smart phone and bring it to Science, Neat to record your first observation on iNat.

El Rio will be having their killer happy hour prices and grillin’ up some burgers (veg too) on the patio. Get in touch with your inner scientist while sipping your favorite drink and networking with other likeminded nerds.
